An "unintentional" Adsense cheater

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by gregdavidson, Dec 29, 2008.

    This example shows you how important it is to check your website in both Firefox and Internet Explorer. Especially if you're using Adsense. If you look at http://www.free-php-scripts.net/uncategorized/article-manager-2.html in Internet Explorer, you'll see that the page is perfectly setup, and the Adsense is well-placed. But if you look at it in Firefox, it almost looks as if this person is trying to cheat by overlapping their Adsense on other links and text. I'm sure this person's intentions are good, but they failed to do the most basic thing which is "check your website in different browsers".

    This has been mentioned to me from my hosting when I first got started to check both browser's when setting up pages. Its a good reminder for all to do.

    If this person were to be reported, Google would more than likely disable the Adsense on their website or maybe even suspend their account entirely.

    there are lots of free cross browser testers on the web, it is always good to check your sites with these

    Hire web designers to do the job... you can check your awstats to know which browser is used the most to view you website... you can modify the site accordingly

    Make sure your website is W3C compliant is probably the best way to avoid any problems entirely. However, manually checking doesn't hurt either.

    Checking compatibility between browsers for any website is mandatory IMO

    The homepage is good but if you click on the links of each script title, you'll see that the problem is on all description pages.

    Another important thing to remember is to validate with W3C, I use tidy HTML firefox plugin to make sure the site validates, it's chances of being viewed right in different browsers shoots up high.
